He warned that if anything goes wrong, he and the hostages might he killed. “They’re taking a risk, obviously, in meeting me, just as much as I’m taking a risk meeting them ... A wrong move and people could lose their lives, including myself,” said Terry Waite. Waite, 46, stressed that his efforts to free the Americans have “reached a critical and dangerous stage ... I have been in touch (with the kidnap pers). Progress has been made and we are moving forward.” He would not identify the kidnap pers, who are believed to be Shiite Moslem fundamentalists. “I want to protect them as much as I want to protect myself,” Waite said. “I really do have to just drop out of the picture. I’m prepared to go anywhere, having got this far — within reason.” He came to Beirut after four of the six missing Americans sent a let ter to Anglican Church Archbishop Dr. Robert Runcie last week. He be gan his mission after contact with an unidentified intermediary in Beirut. The letter was signed by Terry Anderson, chief Middle East corre spondent of The Associated Press; the Rev. Lawrence Jenco, a Roman Catholic priest; David Jacobsen, di rector of the American University Hospital in Beirut; and Thomas Su therland, the university’s dean of ag riculture. Waite, a burly, bearded layman, turned up unannounced at west Bei rut’s Commodore Hotel, the base for foreign journalists. He made his sec ond appeal in 24 hours that report ers not hound his path while he seeks face-to-face meeting with the kidnappers. He apparently spotted photogra phers and television crews near where he is staying and feared they “They’re taking a risk, ob viously, in meeting me, just as much as Tm taking a risk meeting them ... A wrong move and people could lose their lives, in cluding myself. ’’ — Archbishop of Can terbury Terry Waite. could jeopardize his mission of mercy. “I’d like to make a particular plea that I’m not to be followed by any body because if that happened then that will jeopardize my own safety and the safety of other people," he said during the impromptu news conference in the hotel lobby. “It’s extremely important because of the great, great sensitivity of the situation that I am left totally alone because anything I have to do be yond this point will have to be en tirely by myself.” Waite arrived from London on Wednesday night and found a group of television crews at the air port. He was driven to a west Beirut notel by armed militiamen. He vanished from the hotel just ■ before midnight, driven by two men in a blue car to an undisclosed desti nation in the Moslem sector of the capital. Waite would not tell journalists where he was staying. ‘Til keep in touch with the prs as far as I’m able and make thisstr of appearance,” he said.
